@milonorth I had a similar experience. I normally hate card games in RPG's. I forced myself to "get good" and it really grew on me. The payoff is worth it if you stick it out.
I didn't realize it was going to be prequel. I'm excited regardless. The first was a lower budget kinda game with flaws, but I still enjoyed it. I'm a sucker for anything with old school BioWare vibes.
The PS5 Pro will probably just be used to improve graphics for games even more while ignoring the far more important frame rate. People want everything to look like Horizon which had 212 million budget.
Echoes of the Fallen was good, but short. I would recommend waiting for this and playing them together like Nepp said. I have been trophy hunting while waiting for FF7.
Not being able to try it first has kept me from buying either PSVR 1 or 2. It's just way too much money to hope for the best. Not a single one of my gamer friends has it. Which can't be a good sign.

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for March 2024?
I dropped down to Essential a few months back. Zero regrets. I don't think the value is there unless you don't often buy games or are new to PS.
Re: Hi-Fi Rush (PS5) - Xbox Gem Makes Its Rhythmic Debut on PS5
Not for me. I'm sure I will be buying an Xbox game on PS5 at some point, but haven't be interested so far. The Outer Worlds 2 would be day one.
Re: Sony Allegedly Pausing PSVR2 Production Due to Surplus of Unsold Stock
I know a heck of a lot of gamers and not a single one owns it.

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's Acclaimed CCG Queen's Blood Could Get Expanded
@milonorth I had a similar experience. I normally hate card games in RPG's. I forced myself to "get good" and it really grew on me. The payoff is worth it if you stick it out.

The combat and music are Godtier. I'm 90 hours in and haven't even finished the story. It's in my top 5 available PS5 games.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 519
Rebirth might have the greatest music of any game I have ever played. It's incredible how it's on point at all times.

Re: Rumour: Dragon Age: Dreadwolf Will Finally, Finally Release Later This Year
If this flops BioWare is dead. It feels like they kinda already are. Which pains me to say.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for March 2024?

Re: Rise of the Ronin Gets Loads of New PS5 Gameplay Footage, Featuring 8 Different Fighting Styles
@ShogunRok All this game does is make me want to play Ghost if I'm being honest. It's coming out the same day as Dragons Dogma 2 as well ugh.
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Gets Mature Rating, Mentions Blood, Gore, Surprisingly Sexual Content
Going from Rebirth then straight into Dragons Dogma 2 is going to be pure gaming bliss.

Re: New GreedFall 2 Trailer Reveals a PS5 Prequel to Watch Out For
I didn't realize it was going to be prequel. I'm excited regardless. The first was a lower budget kinda game with flaws, but I still enjoyed it. I'm a sucker for anything with old school BioWare vibes.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's Graphical Problems Are Clear in Digital Foundry Report
The PS5 Pro will probably just be used to improve graphics for games even more while ignoring the far more important frame rate. People want everything to look like Horizon which had 212 million budget.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's Graphical Problems Are Clear in Digital Foundry Report
@AFCC One is linear and one is open world. It's not that hard to understand.

Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Sales Apparently Top 10 Million
I wonder how much money they would have lost had they put it on a subscription service?
Re: UK Sales Charts: Helldivers 2 Bucks Industry Trend with Rising Weekly Sales
Being a budget priced game was a great decision. People are much more willing to give a game a chance.
Re: Second Final Fantasy 16 DLC Set to Be Revealed Next Month
Echoes of the Fallen was good, but short. I would recommend waiting for this and playing them together like Nepp said. I have been trophy hunting while waiting for FF7.
Re: Video: One Year Later, Is PSVR2 Doing Enough?

Re: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (PS5) - Strong Sequel Seeks a New Direction
@ShogunRok The demo made me feel like this game is going to drain the DuelSense battery pretty fast?

Re: Here's Your Best Look Yet at The Plucky Squire's Dimension-Hopping Gameplay
I love the art style, but absolutely hate puzzles.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (PS5) - Strong Sequel Seeks a New Direction
